“So they’re going to get millions of dollars but the woman, the wife, this beautiful woman, I handed her the check—we handed her the check—and she said, ‘This is so nice, and I appreciate it, but I’d much rather have my husband.’ Now I know some of the women in this room wouldn’t say the same,” Trump reportedly said. “At least four couples here would have been thrilled, actually.”

I'm so glad my projected lifespan overlaps with an extended period where the boomer generation functionally no longer exists.

Their pestilence will remain for a long time.

You might find out that there's shitty people in other generations too.

I have, and there are. It's just that on average, boomers tend to be shittier than silent, Gen X, Gen Y (millennials), Gen Z, and Gen α. More entitled, less self-aware, less empathetic, less willing to learn or at least accept new concepts, less humble, less informed, and more bigoted. Boomers are very, very lucky that they have a sizeable contingent of hippies to buoy their reputation.

Trump isn't a boomer, he's a pre-boomer.

That’s not true, the baby boom was definitely on by mid 46

Bro who downvoted you for this. 😭 This is just a basic, honest mistake with a correction and a very polite and immediate acknowledgement of the mistake.
